Getting unfolded SphereGeometry 2D plane

[hofk]

@spancioc

My first question is how can I get the 3D SphereGeometry converted to a regular 2D geometry?

Do you mean something like this?

Multi Form Geometry

There is an extension. Properties .cover .onTop To be able to create 2D surfaces I used the cover in a simple way. This is done by the new .cover property. From the cylinder you get a rectangular surface comparable to the three.js PlaneGeometry. With torsion, you can then create something like this. Added in the example. About the new property .onTop. Originally, the geometry was such that it normally stood on the xz plane. This resulted from the origin of geometry to create…
